I don't generally do artwork that is for a specific time of the year, as that just seems like such a strange and limiting concept...
But. I did do a Halloween-ish one this year.
Not that it started out that way, it just kind of progressed and with LARGE thanks to a
costume idea from Martha Stewart, it just became a Halloween painting.
Here is a progress shot I grabbed if it as I threw paint on it. Of course, using orange makes it instantly Halloweeny. I hardly ever use orange.
I think this is one of the rare times when the print is actually more beautiful than the original artwork. I reproduced it at the same size and the slight change in colour that happens when you scan and print really made it pop.
It's available in the shop now. I might also offer it matted in the near future. And probably the original painting too. Haha, how many ways can you utilize one image? I will do it!
P.S. She has magic hair. In more ways than one.
I -love- it! :)
